EPIC Collage Papers with BALLOONS!!

[@careyclapp8357]

I love these! Just a balloon and paint!!!! Such great results and so fun. I think I like the baggie of sand results the best, it does look like flowers!!!!

[@catrains.artist]

So glad you enjoyed the demo. Hope that you will give this a whirl!

[@lindseyotton]

Thank you! I learned a lot and I’m inspired 😄

[@catrains.artist]

That is music to my artist's heart. Hope you enjoy making this process your own.

[@valerieoberleexec-artist]

Love this process and results!

[@catrains.artist]

Thanks so much!

[@WeekOfTastes]

just tried this, took a bit of trying. Finally realized I needed a lot more paint than what I thought. More "practice" needed!

[@catrains.artist]

It took me a ton of practice too before it worked. That is true of every TUNE IN paper. About 2 hours of experimenting before I can get good papers in the 3rd hour! Keep practicing, you'll get it!

[@WeekOfTastes]

@@catrains.artist another thing I think would really help is having the paint in a plastic bottle like you use. Getting it out of the tube is really messy plus I only have the standard size tubes

[@catrains.artist]

@@WeekOfTastes Yes it helps a lot. Best part is that it makes most paper making faster!

Astonishing

[@catrains.artist]

Awww thanks. So glad you thought so.

[@kathibell2428]

Another wonderful process! I'm learning so much from you! Would you consider sharing some ideas for other color combinations for creating papers?

[@catrains.artist]

So glad that you are enjoying my art demos. As far as colors, I recommend choosing any blue, red and yellow from your paints, plus a white and black, and play with what colors you can get from them. This is what I do, and just stick with the same colors so that ALL of my papers will go together in collage.

[@donnatwitchel4249]

I'm going to have to try this

[@catrains.artist]

[@junqueseekervintage]

Fascinating! 💙

[@catrains.artist]

I thought so to which is why I kept playing with these techniques until I got the affects you see here.

[@greggtransky9080]

You always have such innovative ideas! Thank you Catherine! Sondra Borrie

[@catrains.artist]

[@sheilazart]

Awesome ideas! I love the results! :) Thanks for sharing, Cat! :)

[@catrains.artist]

Glad you like them! Thank you 🥰

[@lindymcelroy3653]

Love it! I have done something similar. It looked like irises. So I made stems

[@catrains.artist]

Many of these look like flowers to me as well. Irises sound beautiful using this technique.

[@brendatowsley8505]

I am loving your art demos! I tried your bubble prints when I was camping. Something I could do without a big mess in my camper. Made some pretty papers!

[@catrains.artist]

That sounds like so much fun! Some of these demos can certainly get very messy, very quickly! Thank you so much for watching 😊

[@anazec2887]

I newer see you using acrilic markers to add interest in some area of painted paper?

[@catrains.artist]

I usually don't use them, however I never say never. I have added market accents in the past, but there are so many other tools I love more!

[@BarbHuntington]

I'm wondering...Do you add anything to the paint to thin it out?

[@catrains.artist]

I'm using Nova brand paint which is like a soft body, and already thinner in nature. So no I don't thin my paint out, used right out of the jar!

[@suzannewithers8093]

What colour Nova blue are you using please

[@catrains.artist]

Phthalo blue green shade
